The Ferrari GTO was built to compete in the new Group B Race series and a minimum of 200 cars were required for homologation. The 288 GTO never raced and all 272 cars built remained road cars.

The GTO was based on the mid-engined, rear wheel drive 308 GTB. The 288 refers to its 2.8 liter V8 engine. The 288 has twin IHI turbochargers, intercoolers, and Weber-Marelli fuel injection fitted. Unlike the 308, the engine was mounted longitudinally, using the 308's rear boot space. The GTO is an impressive performer. 0-60 mph times are in the upper 4 second range and Ferrari claimed 0-125 mph (201 km/h) in 15 seconds flat. Top speed was a staggering 190 mph (306 km/h).
